MASKED men threatened a barmaid then ran off with cash after a raid at the Butchers Arms on Liverpool Road in Great Sankey on Sunday night.
The pair grabbed the girl while she was working down in the cellar of the pub, held a weapon to her temple and demanded she hand over the safe keys.
They ran off with an amount of cash from the safe as the pub was emptying at around 10.45pm and Det Con Carl Huntington wants to speak to anyone who saw the men entering or leaving the premises.
The staff member was left shaken following the robbery but escaped injury. Both men were wearing balaclavas and dark clothing.
They are both around 5ft 10ins and one of the robbers is of stocky build.
Anyone with information on the raid can contact DC Huntington on 01244 613 845.
